Seriously? OMG! WTF?

The Red Album offers some of Rivers Cuomo’s most personal work on tracks such as “Heart Songs,” where he reminisces about the music wafting out of the radio growing up, name-checking everyone from Gordon Lightfoot and Eddie Rabbit to ABBA, Devo, Pat Benatar and Quiet Riot, and the playful childhood romp, “Everybody Get Dangerous” (“I didn’t really tip cows for fun, but my friends did,” he says).
“We’ve grown as a team,” Rivers says about the recording process, which started out with producer Rick Rubin at a pair of Malibu studios, then continued with the band on their own before they teamed up with Garret “Jacknife” Lee (R.E.M., Bloc Party, Snow Patrol, U2) for the first single, “Pork and Beans,” and “Troublemaker.”
“We tried to branch out instrumentally and with the arrangements,” says Pat, who played guitar and synthesizer on “Automatic,” a song he wrote and sang. “Just get a little more open with the sounds, not quite so close and dense.”
Influences were plentiful in the making of the new album. “I was listening to a lot of ‘90s hair metal when I came up with ‘Cold Dark World’,” says bassist Scott Shriner who wrote the music and traded vocals with Rivers on the song.
The Red Album shows those dreams coming true, not just for Rivers, but the rest of the band.

The first single Pork and Beans is already climbing the charts and I am sure this is just the first of many singles off “The Red Album“! Just like all their other albums! I mean this the hip hip band that gave us Buddy Holly, Island in the Sun, Beverly Hiils, Hash Pipe and so many other memorable songs!

Contest 2: Win a T-Shirt from The CW’s Reaper!!! Reaper is back with 3 all new episodes this Thursday at 9p and then it will back to Tuesdays at 9p on April 22nd for 5 more new episodes! For the first 20 years of his life, Sam (Bret Harrison, “The Loop,” “Grounded for Life”) wondered why his parents went so easy on him. Whether it was school, sports or career choices, Sam’s mom (Allison Hossack, “Falcon Beach”) and dad (Andrew Airlie, “The L Word”) always let him get by with the least possible effort. As a result, Sam skipped college, took a dead-end job at the local Work Bench home improvement store and now wastes endless hours playing video games. Everything in his slacker world changed the day Sam turned 21 and discovered the ungodly reason his parents let him slide: they sold his soul to the devil before he was even born. When Satan himself (Ray Wise, “24,” “The Closer”) drops by to personally explain that Sam must now serve as his bounty hunter, tracking down evil souls that have escaped and returning them to Hell, Sam refuses to accept his bizarre fate. After getting just a glimpse of Satan’s temper, however, Sam realizes that breaking a deal with the devil has consequences that are very, very bad. Still, Sam is fascinated by the devil’s charm and his flattering insistence that Sam is full of untapped potential. Reaper is a great fun show that is mix of comedy and supernatural with some young love angst, but all in all it is a great show you have to check out. Your parents don’t have to sell your soul to the devil in order for you like this show!

Contest 5: Win the 30 Seconds from Mars CD A Beautiful Lie! The fourth single and video from A Beautiful Lie, the same title as the 30 Seconds to Mars’ platinum album, marks the first music video ever shot 200 miles north of the Arctic Circle in Greenland. “Shooting in Greenland was a dream come true and one of the most exciting adventures we’ve ever had as a band,” says 30 Seconds to Mars lead vocalist Jared Leto. “Although incredibly challenging and at times it seemed just out of our reach, once we finally arrived the beauty and magnificence of the terrain, the wonderful culture of the people, and the amazing journey itself were all inspiring beyond belief. Almost everyone has heard of global warming by now but for the people of Greenland it is a real and tangible problem of today, not an issue of tomorrow. This journey changed our lives. We hope that with this film and new website we can share, in some small way, this incredible experience with our family of friends and fans around the world.”
